NotesIn 1885, John Quinlan, 13, arrived at Quebec, Canada, in a group of 43 Roman Catholic children accompanied by Cardinal Manning and en route to Rimouski, Quebec, Ottawa and Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

"Sixteenth Annual Report of the Local Government Board, 1886-87; Copy of Reports of Inspection of Children sent out to Canada, as of February 12, 1887.

Report of Mr. J. A. Donaldson, Government Immigration Agent, at Toronto, Ontario.

John Quintan, aged 15, from parish of St. Mary, Lambeth; placed with St. Nicholas Institute. Toronto. Drowned while bathing in the Don, 20th June 1886."

The Goble, Toronto, Monday, June 21, 1886, reported:

"DROWNED IN THE DON

A party of boys living in the East End set out yesterday afternoon to bathe in the Don. Very few, if any of them, could swim, but that did not prevent them from going to one of the deepest and most dangerous parts of the river. Among the party was John Quinlan, 14 years old, who had been living at the Nicholas Home. While wading out into deep water his companions called out to him to come back, but he took no heed of their warnings. The result was that he got into a hole which was above his depth, and sank out of sight. The body was brought to shore by the boys, who laid it on the bank, face upward, and then changed their occupation to ball playing for the remainder of the afternoon. The body was removed to the Morgue."
